  The wine looks ruby colored. The legs are medium. There is light sediment in the bottle.
  The nose is intense morello cherry and very fruity;
  On the palate there is a slightly barrique note, well integrated; medium body and very mouthfilling, tannin is dry but pleasant;
  this is an excellent merlot with depth, insistence and a tricky finish.
  Thats why this is one of my favorites. Someone claimed that this was the best merlot in 2002 and beated Petrus in a blind tasting. But I can hardly believe that.
